hey ppl

recently blew the head gasket on the 32 rb20det

was just gunna get the fix for the rb20det but began thinking about rb25det upgrade.

my gearbox is stuffed in the rb20 so im thinkin about just saving to have a rb25 halfcut installed.

i know KYP has halfcuts and installs but im just wondering how much ppl have paid for there engine swaps?

And whereabouts besides the previously mentioned?

i'd really just be looking at a stock swap initially.

thanx in advance

k...

i was tryin to save time by seeing where ppl had alredy had the conversion done so i could call the workshop specifically, as the consolidated workshop thread doesnt really outline what shops do engine swap or supply halfcuts etc.

      Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.

      Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.

      I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things

      I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt

      So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm.
